Dawn Wilcox (Women Count USA)

Dawn, founder of Women Count USA, is the only woman who has taken it upon herself to meticulously document the number of women killed in America by men. According to her Twitter account, has documented over 1,600 women killed in 2018 (alleged or convicted) under #FemicideCensus. She calls on government, police, and courts to do more to protect women. She has also coined "corrective femicide" to show that the US has honor killings. Follow her work at https://facebook.com/WomenCountUSA
